Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Europe is home to a variety of cultural treasures. Lonely Planet, the world's largest travel guide publisher, has offered pairs of cities for culture hungry but time poor travelers.
London and Paris
It takes you about two hours to travel from London to Paris by Eurostar, a high speed railway service. The two capital cities have been competing in fashion, art and nightlife for decades — but each secretly looks up to the other.
No one can doubt the grand and impressive beauty of Paris' Louvre Museum, but if you want to save money, you cannot skip the British Museum free to pared with London, Paris has more outdoor attractions such as the beautiful green walkway La Promenade Plantee.
In Paris, you'll see diners linger over red wine. While in London, you can try some afternoon tea, eat fish and chips or salted cake.
Vienna and Bratislava
Austrian capital Vienna and Slovakia city Bratislava are an hour apart by train. But since they are linked by the Danube River, the best way to travel is by ship. A tour of the two cities is the perfect way to experience everything from 17th century's Habsburg dynasty splendor to sci fi restaurants.
Vienna is famous for Mozart and imperial palaces. You can appreciate the perfect blending of architecture and nature in the grand Schonbrunn Palace, and reward yourself with a cup of Vienna coffee, which has made its way to the world's cultural heritage list.
Bratislava is best known for its fine dining — the remarkable UFO restaurant. You can enjoy a meat laden dinner here in an amazing setting.

Often people use laptops (笔记本电脑) on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.
Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1,500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110 year old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. Besides, they will be able to use e mail to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast food restaurant or under the trees — anywhere at all!
Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable (可行的). As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. Also, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.

Driving to a friend's house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend's rooftops.I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it was that most city people, myself included, usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.
My friend had also seen it.He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him.It had touched much of his life.
I know the feeling.Last December I took my seven year old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends.We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water.Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside.The moon grew to its fullest during our trip.Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys.Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard.It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence.And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.
Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fibreglass.We have televisions, cell phones, electricity, heaters, ovens, air conditioners, cars, and computers.
Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought: before long, I would like to live in a small cottage.There I will grow vegetables, read books, walk in the mountains, and perhaps write, but not in anger.I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons.But I will be able to walk outside on a silent night and touch the moon.

A．express the feeling of returning to nature

Youth volunteers from Beijing University visited Songtang Hospital, a care clinic for the aged and dying patients, during the second Global Youth Service Day on April 21.
Thirty student volunteers from the university's School of International Studies sat at the beds of the patients in their specially decorated “care huts”. They talked with them and gave massages to patients kept in their beds.
“I felt sorry that I could not offer more to these people than talking with them and trying to cheer them up.” said Deng Yetao, 20, a third year student. “But it occurred to me that they need more care and love than babies. They are afraid of the coming death. Their loneliness is worse than physical pains.”
“Even though they are suffering a lot, the majority of the elderly people want to talk to us. Each of them has a lot of life experiences and philosophies to share. Instead_of_doing_them_a_favor,_I_felt_I_was_gaining_a_valuable_lesson，” said Mao Xiahua, another third year student.
Mao talked with two elderly patients for a whole afternoon. The fact that most of the patients in the 80 room clinic are aged people with diseases which will lead to death soon made the volunteers' hearts heavy.
Ninety one percent of the patients will spend the last days of their lives in the clinic, according to a survey by the hospital.
Daily visits and services by social workers and youth volunteers are a very important part of their programmer. A total of 330,000 Beijing students from 119 universities and colleges have visited the hospital. Many continue to offer services in their spare time. Some of them volunteer to hold the hands of dying patients during the last minutes of their lives.
Yin Hang, a student from Beijing Medical College, said he felt “the glory of life” as he saw the fading smile on the face of the old man who passed into a deep unconsciousness (昏迷) while he was holding his hands.

Best wishes.
Yours，
Jane

参考范文：
There is no doubt that we have benefited a lot from the Internet in our everyday life.We can read news, watch films, keep in touch with our relatives, make friends, or play games to get relaxed on the Internet.
But every coin has two sides.The Internet also has bad effects on people, especially on teenagers.Things such as violence and cheating, often appear on the Internet seriously polluting their hearts and soul.Consequently, children will gradually lose interest in their studies.
Now, it's high time the government took effective measures.Some websites that disobey the rules should be made public and closed up.As students, we should protect ourselves by keeping on guard against the bad effect of the Internet.I'm sure we will have a better online environment soon so that the Internet can serve us better.
